    Got my 80's tape in my Panasonic RX-SR550, plugged in to the Sony SEQ-50 portable equalizer, into my Bose headphones! Walkman.JPG

    By portable you mean it has a place for batteries?

    The Walkman EQ was meant for attaching to your Walkman! They go for silly money nowadays.

    Yes, it does. It takes 2 AA batteries.

    Yes, they do - too much, in my opinion. I happened to get this one for cheap, because it "didn't work". Just needed a battery terminal cleaned, and it works great.

    "Deals" do pop up, I've got several new ones ready for uploading to threads, but you have to be patient and cast a wide net. That EQ is one of the most collectable accessories that it's at another level, it would be interesting to know the sales numbers, I bet a lot were sold off cheap, I don't think they fit the mood of a small portable cassette player in the 80's so there's not many left.

    I never had the nice units, as a kid with no money I had to live with players like the Sportster's but they did their duty until they got shredded during midnight skateboard runs.
